The former Golden Lion Hotel was purchased by the city in December of 2020 with the idea that it would be used as a substance abuse treatment center for up to 100 people.
ANCHORAGE, Alaska - Neighbors were wary of the project, as was Mayor Dave Bronson when he was running for office. Now the mayor says the site isn’t a good spot for a treatment center at all.
But some assembly members disagree, pointing out that project estimated to cost $100 million and is in no way certain as it could be years before getting off the ground. “We need this project added to the state’s list of priorities in order to receive federal funding,” Shelby said. “Once that happens, under ideal circumstances, we are looking at five years till construction.”
Also representing District 4, Assembly member Felix Rivera is floating another idea for the facility.
